| Video Discription | Join me as I show the good and the bad of how I set up this drip irrigation system in the garden. I made many mistakes along the way, but I'm still learning and trying. Even after editing the video, I see a few more things I forgot. So stay tuned for part 2 soon. The 2 systems I tied together are from Garden in Minutes and Mister Landscaper, both Florida-based companies. The Garden in Minutes Grid makes setting up a breeze for a newbie. They are assembled in the US from domestic and foreign parts. You can learn more about Garden in Minutes here: https://michelleinthemeadow.com/grid (I am an affiliate for Garden in Minutes) The Mister Landscaper makes drip irrigation easy by offering kits, but because I had what seemed like so many varied layouts, it would be best if I ordered the parts and constructed them on the fly for my garden. Mister Landscaper's website shares that they are fully made in the USA. You can find their website here: https://michelleinthemeadow.com/drip (I am not an affiliate of Mister Landscaper, but if that changes, I'll update this disclosure.) Once I settle on the final layout, I'll create some additional videos and instructions, too. Additional Drip Irrigation Tips Courtesy of Gemini and vetted by me. 1. Planning is Key: Before purchasing any materials, carefully plan your system layout. Consider the size and shape of your beds, the types of plants you're growing, and their individual water needs. This will help you determine the right number of emitters, tubing length, and any additional components like pressure regulators and filters. 2. Water Quality Matters: If you have hard water or well water, you may want to invest in a filter to prevent mineral buildup in your emitters and tubing. This will help ensure your system functions optimally for years to come. (I realized this mistake while editing; I need to install the filter on the system.) 3. Mulch is Your Friend: Applying a thick layer of mulch around your plants after installing drip irrigation will help conserve moisture, suppress weeds, and regulate soil temperature. This will reduce the amount of water your plants need and make your system even more efficient. (I'm still working on the mulch part, too, and will talk about that in a future video.) 4. Maintenance is Important: Regularly inspect your system for leaks, clogs, or damage. Flush the lines periodically to remove any debris or mineral buildup. This will help prevent problems and extend the lifespan of your system. 5. Consider Automation: While manually turning valves on and off can work for smaller systems, you might want to consider investing in a timer or smart irrigation controller to automate the watering process. This will save you time and ensure your plants receive consistent watering, even when you're not around. 6. Experiment and Adapt: Like you, many gardeners learn through trial and error. Don't be afraid to experiment with different emitters, tubing layouts, and watering schedules to find what works best for your specific plants and growing conditions.

I started gardening here five years ago and am glad you're here. On this property, we have more than 80 individual fruit trees and shrubs and more than a dozen different kinds of annuals. The slopes make for interesting ways to garden, but we're trying to make the best of it. On the first Sunday evening of each month (7PM Eastern), I go live on YouTube, sharing updates and answering your questions.
